Having said that, my daughters manual Yaris has 6

Having said this the Mexican is not helped by being a 'fat bastard' at around 1700KG......a decent 2 door coupe of yesteryear, like a 3 litre Capri, weighed in at around 1000 KG.
Well I am warm and okay!! My back is still giving me grief, wear and tear after 50 years on the spanners. It takes longer for recovery now I am 68.
Mauling about at work yesterday with 1.5"(ish) pitch triplex chain & its associated sprockets .... you could hardly lift each of them on their own. All outside in the pi55ing rain & wind, 15' up in the air on a scaffold platform ..... can't wait to go back to work in the new year to finish it off!

I'm quite happy with my SKY+ box, but they keep contacting me to 'upgrade' to SKY QI have trouble finding one channel that's worth watching, never mind recording.
I was, but after hearing the benefits, I changed to Sky Q
Can record 3 channels at the same time - so they told me.
Search facillies are better. etc.
If you lose the remote you can press a button on the box and the remote will buzz. (used that facility a few times)
A lot better box all round.

Cant use the old box as a 2nd unit so I was told.
I got it dor £20 a month so no complaints from me.
Search facilities? Easy, even on sky+ box
I don't lose my remote and, if I do, I have two more

You're one of the 'aren't many' then.There aren't many people of a certain age who haven't had a Rover at some stage of their life.

the only Rover I'd consider would be a P5b Coupe

The VP version is a good looking car.....
A deluded one.
I was a bit of a boozer in my youth, but rarely drink these days unless I go out.
Can't cope with the hangovers any more.
